The Enemy Return With New Album



The Enemy are back with a brand new album for 2026, and things are hotting up for the Coventry trio as Social Disguises looks to keep Tom, Andy and Liam busy throughout the year. 


The Enemy - Not Going Your Way

We had the taster track Not Going Your Way which was released in October 2025 and welcomed by new and old fans alike. This was quickly followed up with the sing a long tune Trouble and The Enemy tour. The new year kicked off with the third track from Social Disguises, The Boxer and this was quickly followed up by the announcement of album launch performances and signings. The new album will be out on Friday 20th February 2026 and fans can pre-order copies, available in various formats via The Enemy official website.


The Enemy - Trouble


The Enemy have proved over the past few decades how much they enjoy performing live, and even better when fans can get up close and personal at the smaller more intimate venues. Festivals are also an opportunity to attract new fans and introduce them to the energetic sounds of Indie - a growing list of Summer festivals and events have already been announced. The year will end with a supporting role on the tour with Ocean Colour Scene.

Don't be surprised if Tom Clarke, Andy Hopkins and Liam Watts announce another tour very soon - after all, this is what The Enemy love doing!

A New Experiment Is Coming!



A new experiment begins at the end of January 2025 in which surviving a 'nuclear' blast will be key as one individual locks himself away inside a bunker.

The Nuclear Bunker Experiment will test the endurance capabilities and survival instincts as the comforts of everyday life are exchanged for limited luxuries such as cold tinned food and battery powered devices.


The experiment supposedly sees a nuclear war break out as a 100,000 megaton nuke explodes in the centre of London - causing millions of deaths and catastrophic destruction at the heart of the country. As the warning siren sound, quick thinking and immediate shelter protection are the only hope for survival in this experiment. Even some 100 miles away from the blast dangers exist from fallout and radiation poisoning, and survival will depend on how safe the bunker will be as the days unfold.

Videos are being creating in the lead up to the fateful day on YouTube, and you can follow the progress before and during the experiment with blog posts on The Nuclear Bunker Experiment 🧪 🥼 



There will be no running water, heat or outside contact during the time in the bunker - in fact, not even normal shower/toilet facilities will be available. The average outside temperatures are 4C/39.2F, which means life inside the unheated bunker will become unbearable as time goes on. Will the experiment work? Tune in and find out.

What was it like growing up in the rough parts of Coventry?
How did religion and politics influence life?

Remembering some long forgotten places and sharing some humourous memories, this promises to be an evening to remember!
